still going strong

I was laying in bed he other day thinking about all the things I was going to pack and trying to decide how
I was going to get all my pillows to fit in the car. I sleep surrounded by 4 pillows and a body pillow and
drowning in all the pillows. I’ve found its the only way I can get sleep with Chris gone. Last time I went to
Jersey I only took 1 pillow and I had a hard time getting to sleep and my back was killing me. I did get the
space saver bags so I could take a bunch of pillows and just shrink them down to fit I guess. But that sounds
kinda insane lol. I think I’m going to try and get away with just taking 2 pillows. I miss sleeping in the same bed
as my husband. Boo to deployments!

 

 

I’m just trying to be creative with my diary entry today since I don’t have much to write about but need to get an entry in. Hmm… maybe I should check on the NoJoMo challenge…

Favorite quote and why. [dakota.]

Your home is on fire, your family, pets, and pictures are out safely. You can only take 3 things with you. What are they? [dream seeker]

Well for the first one… "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away"
~Ever since I came across that quote I have loved it. It’s just one of those things that touches you and that quote does. You never know when your last day will be, you could take 8 million breaths or you could take only 1 million breaths but if you live your life to the fullest and do the things that you want to do, strive to reach your goals it won’t matter how many breaths you take because you will have lived.

The second one…. Hmmm… my family, Aurora and all our pictures were out. I take all my artwork because no insurance can bring those back. My flute. My jewelery because I have some pieces that are very important to me and given to me by special people in my life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don’t really have much else to write about. Nicholai woke up at 3am and 6am but went back to bed until 7. Aurora has to go to the vet. Chris has to get lunch for the guys this week which means that on our time he has to be up at 2am and be up for the rest of the day so we haven’t really talked much. We have emailed back and forth a couple times over the last 3-4 days but no real conversations. I called my mum and Allison yesterday because I was so bored lol. I washed the handwash clothes today, well about half of them. They have been sitting in the laundry basket for months now because I hate handwashing things but refuse to pay the dry cleaner to wash them but since it needed to be done I did that today. Nicholai won’t be napping too much longer so I should probably get my makeup on. Got my entry in for the day atleast! NoJoMo day 14 and still haven’t missed 1 day!

I was looking at my entry calendar and I have more entries this month then any other month of 2010! I need to write more… all those memories that I didn’t write down…. sad. I will try to keep up with writing more even after NoJoMo is over.

I also need to catch up on my favs… I usually do that at night but since Nicholai has been getting up in the middle of the night I’ve stopped readying my

favs… need to catch up and note and ryn to notes that I’ve gotten. Slacker slacker slacker lol
